People pass in front of the entrance to an Agitpunkt (Агитпункт), also known as an agitation point or propaganda station, Crimea, 1982. In the foreground, three people appear to pass in front of a building; they all face towards the left. Behind them, a short set of wide steps lead up to the covered entrance to a building. Four individuals, probable members of the band Russians (Россияне), carry guitars and other musical equipment up the stairs as they approach the building's entrance. Their backs are to the camera. The door they appraoch sits off-center to the right. The sign above the door reads, Агитпункт, or Agitpunkt. The building stretches up and across the background. Photograph in black sleeve.
